Check Cancellation and Invoice Settings

This article explains which settings for cancellation fees and invoices you should check before opening registration.

If you have created an event based on a template or a previous year's event, check in particular whether the copied cancellation conditions, tax information and accounting entity number are still applicable to the new event.
